Before i got my airbrush gear i did a lot of research.... Now I know EVERYBODY, who is any good advises branded gear. I agree, without question they are right.
However, after pricing up the advice, it worked out to be quite a bit more than I had... So, I went with a cheap kit, 2 no-name ab's and a 3ltr tanked compressor. I tried the brushes, and found that unless i strip n clean every 10 mins, they were $%*^.
I looked at the NEO by Iwata, around £45. Then come across a Veda 180, its a cheap and maybe bad copy of a Iwata costing £200+. Looking into it more I found mixed reviews and it seemed like a gamble on if you got a good one or not! Looking into the NEO also got similar reviews.
I purchased the Veda about 6 weeks ago now and have used it most days to make a mess on paper. I'm a complete noob as the title suggests, so i dont know any better at the moment, but, I can get a line as thin as hair and also a decent flow of paint. I can wash it out change colour and it'll spray away again without hassle. The Veda 180 cost me £21 and I dont expect it to give me a lifetime of hassle free use, but parts are available and cheap. So if anyone is like me and just wants to have a go n see how it pans out, it may be worth a look.
I'll probably get a better ab in time and look back and think "what a noob" but thats where i'm at right now and just thought I would share it.
